Kellie's Come-Back-For-More Ham
Not a fan of ketchup or sugar, myself, I'm shocked that not even I can get enough of it. The flavors are tangy, sweet, smoked and salty all at the same time...such a trip for the tongue!
Grandma Randolph's Noodles
These noodles are my family's favorite part of the Thanksgiving meal. These thick and tasty noodles take the place of the gravy; they get dumped over everything!
Bulk Venison Breakfast Sausage
This venison sausage recipe is something we make every year as my husband is an avid hunter. We add pork to the venison because the venison has such a low fat content. For the pork, we get really fatty-looking roast ground at our grocery store.
